Any recomendations? I know of course there's Random-Tech. Anyone heard of CATCO? I've heard of them, just not seen anyone with them. I can't find their website either. Dynos on any brands?

I've got a Powercore- it's little more than a test pipe.

It rattles a bit at high RPM, and it definitely makes the exhaust note roar.

Do you have emissions tests out there? We have the wonderful e-check. I just don't want to fail it.

Actually Flowmaster as odd as it sounds. Affter hearing the Teg Type R, I had to at least try it. It sounds sooo sexy.

It'll be on tonight. I'll try to get some sounds clips somehow.....

Yeah I have my test pipe that I could put on. If I do though I'll likely be throwing CELs.

I managed to break a bolt on my exhaust. So now I'm either going to attempt toget the bolt out or jus say screw it and have a shop weld it together.

I had a center exhaust bracket break once and the shop welded it for free
